Apart from being Himesh’s father, Vipin was also his mentor. He once mentioned in an interview how proud he was of his son’s musical talent from a young age, which led him to give up his own dream of becoming a music director to focus on teaching Himesh.
Vipin had also composed music for one of Salman Khan’s films, which is when Salman first met Himesh and was impressed by his music. This meeting paved the way for Himesh’s breakthrough as a music composer for Salman’s film Pyar Kiya To Darna Kya, with Salman becoming a guiding figure in Himesh’s career.
